This is one of the last kinds of major kits that involve assembling all the components onto a circuit board. Today with all the surface mount devices the technical challenge is too much for most of us and kits largely become a mechanical assembly of already completed circuit boards. -----Original Message----- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net <elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net> On Behalf Of eda...@aya.yale.edu Sent: Friday, January 28, 2022 1:35 PM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] Unassembled K2 Vs Assembled Marketability I don't know the answer to the question though I agree with someone else who said they are different commodities. However, in the long run an unopened kit may be worth a small fortune, like some unopened games and Barbie dolls are. The K2 deliveries are presently TBD . . . I have one (my fifth) on order and no ESD is posted. I assume it's a parts problem. The K2 has already had a number of small component modifications made as the traditional parts have become unobtainable or uneconomic. If it were possible to place an order for the final five S/Ns, whenever that happens, I'd pay for them today. What say, Wayne -- will you make me that deal?

Assembled or unassembled? Is there a price difference in posting either for sale? Thanks!
